In this paper, a gate-all-around junctionless tunnel field effect transistor (JLTFET) based on heterostructure of compound and group III–V semiconductors is introduced and simulated. In order to blend the high tunneling efficiency of narrow band gap material JLTFETs and the high electron mobility of III–V JLTFETs, a type I heterostructure junctionless TFET adopting Ge–AlxGa1?xAs–Ge system has been optimized by numerical simulation in terms of aluminum (Al) composition. To improve device performance, we considered a nanowire structure, and it was illustrated that high-performance logic technology can be achieved by the proposed device. The optimal Al composition founded to be around 20 % (x = 0.2). The numerical simulation results demonstrate that the proposed device has low leakage current IOFF of ~1.9 × 10?17, ION of 4 µA/µm, ION/IOFF current ratio of 1.7 × 1011 and subthreshold swing SS of 12.6 mV/decade at the 40 nm gate length and temperature of 300 K. 相似文献
In this study, a device design of single-gated feedback field-effect transistors (FBFETs) is proposed to achieve latch-up behaviors with high current gains. The latch-up mechanism is examined by conducting an equivalent circuit analysis, and the band diagram, I–V characteristics, memory window, subthreshold swing, and on/off current ratio are investigated using a commercial device simulator. The proposed FBFETs exhibit memory windows wider than 3.0 V, subthreshold swings less than 0.1 mV/decade, the on/off current ratios of approximately 1010, and on-currents of approximately 10−5 A at room temperature. The superior device characteristics and controllable memory windows open the promising possibility of FBFETs as the next-generation electronic devices. 相似文献
The charge–storage properties of Ge nanocrystal (Nc) memory devices with MOS structure have been studied. The Ge nanocrystals
(Ncs) were prepared on a p-Si (100) matrix by means of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) combined with rapid annealing in the
presence of Ar gas. The device is characteristic of better switching characteristics (the Ion/Ioff>105), low leakage current, which was attributed to the effect of Coulomb blockade preventing injection. A significant threshold-voltage
shift of 0.85 V was observed when an operating voltage of 5 V was implemented on the device. The kind of hysteresis behavior
in the double sweep suggests that the device has a good electrostatic control over the Ge Nc channel. 相似文献
The transfer characteristics (ID–VG) of multilayers MoS2 transistors with a SiO2/Si backgate and Ni source/drain contacts have been measured on as‐prepared devices and after annealing at different temperatures (Tann from 150 °C to 200 °C) under a positive bias ramp (VG from 0 V to +20 V). Larger Tann resulted in a reduced hysteresis of the ID–VG curves (from ~11 V in the as‐prepared sample to ~2.5 V after Tann at 200 °C). The field effect mobility (~30 cm2 V–1 s–1) remained almost unchanged after the annealing. On the contrary, the subthreshold characteristics changed from the common n‐type behaviour in the as‐prepared device to the appearance of a low current hole inversion branch after annealing. This latter effect indicates a modification of the Ni/MoS2 contact that can be explained by the formation of a low density of regions with reduced Schottky barrier height (SBH) for holes embedded in a background with low SBH for electrons. Furthermore, a temperature dependent analysis of the subthreshold characteristics revealed a reduction of the interface traps density from ~9 × 1011 eV–1cm–2in the as‐prepared device to ~2 × 1011 eV–1cm–2after the 200 °C temperature–bias annealing, which is consistent with the observed hysteresis reduction.

A battery drivable low-voltage transparent lightly antimony(Sb)-doped SnO2 nanowire electric-double-layer (EDL) field-effect transistor (FET) is fabricated on an ITO glass substrate at room temperature. An ultralow operation voltage of 1 V is obtained on account of an untralarge specific gate capacitance (- 2.14 μF/cm2) directly bound up with mobile ions-induced EDL (sandwiched between the top and bottom electrodes) effect. The transparent FET shows excellent electric characteristics with a field-effect mobility of 54.43 cm2/V. s, current on/off ration of 2 × 104, and subthreshold gate voltage swing (S = dVgs/d(logIds)) of 140 mV/decade. The threshold voltage Yth (0.1 V) is estimated which indicates that the SnO2 namowire transistor operates in an n-type enhanced mode. Such a low-voltage transparent nanowire transistor gated by a microporous SiO2-based solid electrolyte is very promising for battery-powered portable nanoscale sensors. 相似文献
An In0.53Ga0.47As/InP heterojunction-channel tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET) with enhanced subthreshold swing (S) and on/off current ratio (Ion/Ioff) is studied. The proposed TFET achieves remarkable characteristics including S of 16.5 mV/dec, on-state current (Ion) of 421 μA/μm, Ion/Ioff of 1.2 × 1012 by design optimization in doping type of In0.53Ga0.47As channel at low gate (VGS) and drain voltages (VDS) of 0.5 V. Comparable performances are maintained at VDS below 0.5 V. Moreover, an extremely fast switching below 100 fs is accomplished by the device. It is confirmed that the proposed TFET has strong potentials for the ultra-low operating power and high-speed electron device. 相似文献
Long channel n-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors on thin conventional and strained silicon on insulator
substrates have been prepared by integrating gadolinium scandate as high-κ gate dielectric in a gate last process. The GdScO3 films were deposited by electron beam evaporation and subsequently annealed in oxygen atmosphere. Electrical characterization
of readily processed devices reveals well behaved output and transfer characteristics with high Ion/Ioff ratios of 106–108, and steep inverse subthreshold slopes down to 66 mV/dec. Carrier mobilities of 155 cm2/Vs for the conventional and 366 cm2/Vs for the strained silicon substrates were determined. 相似文献
In this work, a Si-based arch-shaped gate-all-around (GAA) tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET) has been designed and analyzed. Various studies on III–V compound semiconductor materials for applications in TFET devices have been made and we adopt one of them to perform a physical design for boosting the tunneling probability. The GAA structure has a partially open region for extending the tunneling area and the channel is under the GAA region, which makes it an arch-shaped GAA structure. We have performed the design optimization with variables of epitaxy channel thickness (tepi) and height of source region (Hsource) in the Si-based TFET. The designed arch-shaped GAA TFET based on Si platform demonstrates excellent performances for low-power (LP) applications including on-state current (Ion) of 694 μA/μm, subthreshold swing (S) of 7.8 mV/dec, threshold voltage (Vt) of 0.1 V, current gain cut-off frequency (fT) of 12 GHz, and maximum oscillation frequency (fmax) of 283 GHz. 相似文献
Designing and developing active, robust, and noble‐metal‐free catalysts with superior stability for electrocatalytic water splitting is of critical importance but remains a grand challenge. Here, a facile strategy is provided to synthesize a series of Co‐based self‐supported electrode materials by combining electrospinning and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technologies. The Co, Co3O4, Co9S8 nanoparticles (NPs) are formed in situ simultaneously with the formation of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) during the CVD process, respectively. The Co‐based NPs are uniformly distributed through the CNFs and they can be directly used as the electrode materials for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acid and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline. The Co9S8/CNFs membrane exhibits the best HER activity with overpotential of 165 mV at j = 10 mA cm?2 and Tafel slope of 83 mV dec?1 and OER activity with overpotential of 230 mV at j = 10 mA cm?2 and Tafel slope of 72 mV dec?1. The onion‐like graphitic layers formed around the NPs not only improve the electrical conductivity of the electrode but also prevent the separation of the NPs from the carbon matrix as well as the aggregation. 相似文献
To evaluate the exchange current Io of the oxygen electrode reaction at the O2 strontium-doped lanthanum manganite (LSM)/yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) composite/YSZ interface, the variation of the
current I vs overvoltage η is measured at low cathodic and anodic polarizations (−50 to 30 mV). A linear behavior is observed within this potential
domain with a unique slope. Taking into account of the dissociative adsorption of the oxygen molecule on the LSM electrocatalyst
surface and the charge transferred at the triple-phase boundary, the exchange current is evaluated to 2.93 mA in air at 747 °C. 相似文献
High performance pentacene organic thin film transistors (OTFT) were
designed and fabricated using SiO2 deposited by electron beam
evaporation as gate dielectric material. Pentacene thin films were
prepared on glass substrate with S--D electrode pattern made from ITO
by means of thermal evaporation through self-organized process. The
threshold voltage VTH was --2.75± 0.1V in 0---50V
range, and that subthreshold slopes were 0.42± 0.05V/dec. The
field-effect mobility (μEF) of OTFT device increased with
the increase of VDS, but the μEF of OTFT device
increased and then decreased with increased VGS when VDS was kept constant. When VDS was --50V, on/off current
ratio was 0.48× 105 and subthreshold slope was 0.44V/dec.
The μEF was 1.10cm2/(V.s), threshold voltage
was --2.71V for the OTFT device. 相似文献
Organic field‐effect transistors (OFETs) based on interconnected nanowire networks of P3HT have been successfully fabricated by using a mixed‐solvent method. The nanowire network density can be tuned by controlling the anisole/chlorobenzene ratio of mixed solvents. The obtained field‐effect mobility, threshold voltage and the ratio of on‐state current and off‐state current (Ion/Ioff) was 0.0435 cm2/V s, –10 V and 1.75 × 104, respectively. The three‐dimensional and interconnected nanowire structure of the networks can enhance the charge transport in P3HT.
Methyl green (MG) film has been grown for the first time on p–Ge semiconductor using a simple and low-cost drop coating method. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of Al/p–Ge and Al/MG/p–Ge diodes have been investigated in the temperature range of 20–300 K. A potential barrier height as high as 0.82 eV has been achieved for Al/MG/p–Ge diode, which has high rectification rate, at room temperature. It is seen that the barrier height of the Al/MG/p–Ge diode at the room temperature is larger than that of Al/p–Ge diode and ideality factor value of 1.14 calculated for Al/MG/p–Ge diode is lower than Al/p–Ge diode. The temperature coefficient of barrier height of the Al/MG/p–Ge diode has been calculated as 2.6 meV/K. The evaluation of current–voltage characteristics shows that the barrier height of the diode increases with the increasing temperature. 相似文献
It is very important to exploit low‐cost and efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts for the development of renewable‐energy conversion and storage techniques. Although much attention has been made to develop efficient catalysts for ORR and OER, it is still highly desired to create new bifunctional catalysts. In this study, Co3O4 hollow polyhedrons are synthesized as efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for ORR and OER by simple one‐step annealing Co‐centered metal–organic frameworks (ZIF‐67). Due to the large specific surface areas and high porosity, the as‐prepared Co3O4 hollow polyhedrons exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activities for ORR and OER in alkaline media. Co3O4 hollow polyhedrons show higher peak current density (0.61 mA cm?2) with four‐electron pathway than Co3O4 particles (0.39 mA cm?2), better methanol tolerance and superior durability (82.6%) than commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst (58.6%) for ORR after 25 000 s. In addition, Co3O4 hollow polyhedrons also display excellent OER performances with smaller overpotential (536 mV) for 10 mA cm?2 than Co3O4 particles (593 mV) and superior stability (86.5%) after 25 000 s. This facile one‐step strategy based on metal–organic frameworks self‐sacrificed templates can be used to develop the promising well‐defined porous hollow metal oxides electrode materials for energy conversion and storage technologies. 相似文献
